Git and GitHub Foundations

Git and GitHub Foundations

Git and GitHub have become important version control and collaboration tools in many software development organizations because of their ease of use, facilitation of code review, and flexible branching models.

In this half-day workshop, we'll show you how to effectively use the most important Git command line tools, including the how to initialize, commit, branch, merge, and share repositories with others. Having successfully shared a project, we'll examine the GitHub web flow, Pull Requests, Issues and connection to continuous integration systems. This workshop will provide you with a solid understanding of why distributed version control systems are an important part of a modern ALM pipeline and with skills to effectively apply Git and GitHub to your everyday work.

Matthew McCullough works for GitHub, Inc. and trains audiences around the world on the most effective use of the Git version control system and GitHub collaboration platform. In supplement to travel-based teaching, he writes books and records videos for O'Reilly and Manning on the topics of delivering technical presentations, the use of modern build and continuous integration tools, and version control industry best practices. @matthewmccull
